The beta-hCG FIA Test is a fluorescence immunoassay for the quantitative detection of Beta Human chorionic gonadotropin (I2-hCG) in human serum, plasma or venous whole blood. It is intended as an aid in diagnosis of pregnancy and dynamic monitoring of patients with malignant tumors.
High Accuracy and SensitivityThe Acon FIAflex beta-hCG FIA Test delivers outstanding analytical performance. With a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity rate of 99.9%, it reliably detects even low concentrations of beta-hCG. The limit of detection is 10 mIU/mL, ensuring early and accurate results, crucial for timely clinical decision-making.
Convenient and Rapid OperationEngineered for efficient laboratory workflows, this cassette-format test requires minimal sample volume (75 L) and is compatible with serum, plasma, or urine. Results are generated in just 15 minutes with the FIAflex Analyzer, allowing for swift diagnostics in a busy clinical setting.
Portability and Ease of UseDesigned with user-friendliness in mind, the test kit is compact, lightweight (approx. 180 g), and needs no external power source. Its semi-automatic operation, clear printed labeling, and robust construction (plastic, microfiber, paper) make it practical for diagnostic labs seeking speed, accuracy, and reliability.
